Experiment in totality

Moholy-Nagy, Laszlo

Experiment in Totality is an essential work in which László Moholy-Nagy, a pioneer of modern art and a key figure of the Bauhaus, presents his vision of art as an integral force in human life. Through this book, Moholy-Nagy argues that art should not be an isolated activity, but an inseparable part of everyday experience and technological innovation. He reflects on his career as an artist, designer, and educator, and advocates for an artistic education that prepares individuals to meet the challenges of the modern world through interdisciplinary creativity. With an approach that spans painting, photography, typography, film, and industrial design, Moholy-Nagy defends a concept of art aimed at transforming not only objects but also human attitudes toward the environment. Experiment in Totality is, ultimately, a passionate manifesto that invites readers to rethink the role of art in contemporary society.
